Today, a coalition of national and community-based organizations launched the Clean Ports Report Card Project — a first-of-its-kind accountability tool, grading major U.S. ports on their progress to cut emissions, increase transparency, and collaborate with communities. Ports need to act as “good neighbors” and collaborate with communities most impacted by their operations to help clean up their ports. Grading Ports: From Rising Star to Preparing to LaunchThe Clean Ports Report Card evaluates ports in four categories:Emissions Inventory – Scores how ports measure emissions, how often they report, and whether reporting is public. Clean Air Planning – Evaluates whether ports have clear targets, milestones, and roadmaps for reducing emissions and modernizing infrastructure. The Clean Ports Report Card equips residents and advocates with transparency tools to hold ports accountable and push for stronger public health protections.
